That $1K would have been my deductible... so I believe I came out ahead on this one.

I really appreciate the input, fellas.

After the repair I'm adding comprehensive.
By glue/weld/stick process your talking about pulling as I mentioned.
80-85% of that dent can be pulled out in just a few minutes.
It's the final 10-15% of the work that takes the knowledge and skill.
Post some pictures of it repaired if you get the chance.
